    Hace años tuve el placer de asistir y siempre me dejó maravillada. Este año que he podido disfrutar por segunda vez invitada por mi cortometraje, y a pesar de que hubieron cambios de última hora, complicaciones que pudieron solucionar de alguna manera, pero su cálida bienvenida, su hospitalidad, su calidad humana, especialmente la del director Lluís, su trato formidable con todas las personas con la humildad que le caracteriza y con toda la grandeza de patrimonio lleno de cultura y arte hace que sin duda quieras repetir.
    Por muchos más. Felicidades 🥰🙏🏻🎬📽️

    Guillaume is an actor full of magic, he recreates emblematic environments of the Mediterranean, Provence, with a romantic, dreamy style that evokes the “nouvelle vague”.
